Play-off joy for Snedeker

Stanley takes a triple-bogey at the last to throw away victory


Brandt Snedeker recorded an extraordinary win at the Farmers Insurance Open on Sunday night after Kyle Stanley endured a final-hole meltdown to send the tournament into a play-off.

Stanley, who started the day with a five-shot lead, looked to be cruising to a maiden PGA Tour title having pulled seven strokes clear of the field at one stage.

But the 24-year-old found himself under pressure on the back nine from Snedeker who posted a closing 67 to set the target in the clubhouse at 16-under-par.

Stanley, though, looked to have retained his composure and made crucial, testing putts for par at 14, 15 and 16 to ensure he headed for final tee with a three-shot advantage.

However, having opted to lay up at the par-five 18th, Stanley watched on in horror as his third spun back off the green and into a water hazard. - http://www.skysports.com/
